Found a Nice Blackhawk at the Gunshow (BKH-44X) - pics

[VonFatman]

Did not expect to find this revolver! Lucky is good!

It came with a box, papers (even a Ruger Collector's Association certificate for the gun), target rear sight, silver eagles and extra cylinder. Shipped May 19, 1972.
I switched to the 45 Colt cylinder and ran 25 rounds down the barrel...a great shooting SA Revolver!

Bob,
that was a great find! Is that your backyard range? I'm as green as that grass with envy if it is.

Very nice grab.

 

[Stoots]

Excellent find!

 

[VonFatman]

Thanks guys. It snuck up on me. I do not think it's been shot very much at all.

Hondo44,
Yes sir. We live in the country so a range works pretty well. Thanks.

Great looking gun. It even has the right bbl length. I would even be tempted to buy that one and I don't care for old models. I have 2 new models that are twins to it. I love the 4 5/8" rugers

Very nice... I thought I had it good. I have to drive about one mile to get to the range I use.

Bob that's a great find. A rare gun in a desirable barrel length in great condition with the box to boot! You are one lucky man.

Congrats! One of the last of the threes!

 

[VonFatman]

Thank you.

Mr. gak,
What does "last of the threes" mean?

I think he mean last of the three screws. That is a great pistol and a great looking house I wish I could still walk out my door and shoot but had to move a few years back for work, yes envy is a good word.

 

[VonFatman]

Ahhh....yes. My brain is a bit slow this morning.

sbyrd, thanks for the info. And....heck, don't envy, just come by and shoot! What's a little drive form ID?....a few hours.

Thank you.

Mr. gak,

Last year of the OM - three screw guns...I would think makes it even that much more of a special find.
